xxxxxHideyoshi ▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬••• Ink User//Konohagakure //Hokage//Word Count: 671 Words Hideyoshi could only really smile as he watched the Genin and Chuunin alike seemingly scramble towards him; they weren’t desperate or anything but all in all they were a little bit of a mess. Sora had provided some light entertainment but now, with three different people making their way towards him with attacks or their attacks making their way towards him; Hideyoshi was beginning to have to think fast and not only fast but smart. He was nowhere near running on empty but still these ‘fights’, if you could call them such things without insulting a proper fight, were beginning to create a strain on Hideyoshi’s body. The Hokage could feel a hole in his chakra reservoir. If this was to keep up, it would begin to cause a problem and that was too much for him to handle at the moment; so now, still smiling as he always did; Hideyoshi looked towards his Paint Brush that had buried itself in a wall and shook his head. Did one of these kids think they could honestly throw one of his own signature jutsu at him and succeed? Hideyoshi must have really let it slip through his fingers if even Genin were beginning to get cocky around him.
Thinking about Stark and the mistake he’d made taking on Akujin, Hideyoshi decided the better way to tackle this lot was to be more passive in his attempts to counter; maybe dodging would be slightly more suitable to avoid any more possible one armed shinobi or any other sort of terrible accident. Hideyoshi was a rarity in the Shinobi world it seemed, too concerned for the wellbeing of others, even his opponents in a world full of cut throats and ninjas; Hideyoshi was one of the only people in this world who still seemed to care and want peace. Brown eyes flickering, Hideyoshi began to set up for his next move. He knew he didn’t have long, so it was best to get on and do it rather than sit back idly and wonder what would happen if Kami’s two lions somehow managed to sink their teeth into him. Biting his thumb through his glove to draw blood, Hideyoshi performed the hand seals for a summoning jutsu but instead of slamming his hand on the ground and the summoning seal appearing on the roofs tiles; Hideyoshi held his hand out towards the sky, palm stretched out as if his fingers might even grasp at the clouds but instead of taking the heavens in his grip, black lines stretched out from Hideyoshi’s hand as they would have done on the floor and suddenly from said seal, thousands upon thousands of paper cranes began to flock around Hideyoshi and the rooftop, making it hard to see anyone. Let alone Hideyoshi in his bright green tunic…
It wouldn’t be easy to navigate through the storm, even for Hideyoshi and with his armour plates rattling every now and them as he briskly tried to put himself between the Genin and a wall of cranes in order to mask his retreat; it was going to be hard for Hideyoshi to even get away. I need to start wearing less visible colours, I’m supposed to be a ninja, Hideyoshi thought to himself as he juxtaposed against the white of the paper cranes The only way this could be any worse was if I was wearing orange…
The kage continued to keep his ears open for his opponents, the rustling of paper made it hard but it would be easy to distinguish the Genin pushing through to make their way towards him versus the natural shuffling of the cranes fallings through the sky. It may have appeared a silly move at first but now it was becoming quite the tactical manoeuvre; Hideyoshi didn’t even need to Shunshin, he could just run, tumble, flip, skip and hide within the storm and hope for the best. He just needed to wait before bailing all together though; he could still use this to his advantage.
•••▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬ "I fight for my friends, for they fight with me. I fight when there is no hope, just in case there is any. I fight for freedom, so that no one may take it from me. I am human and that is my greatest strength."
Yukiko huffed loudly, mimicking a bratty child almost. She turned around and shrugged a bit at Raito. Things seemed a bit dull at the moment, but it quickly changed when Yukiko looked up to watch as the Hokgae summoned a great deal of what looked to be paper cranes. The noise of the paper masked almost everything around them and she thought it not wise to go after him. She could see little flecks of his bright green outfit. It made Yukiko crack a smile, but back to business. Facing Raito completely, she put a hand on his shoulder lightly. "How you doing? Maybe we should find a safe place a get patched up? This fight, or whatever this was, looks to be about over from what I'm seeing. Might as well get a head start out of here." She chuckled slightly and let her hand drop back to her side. She waited patiently for his response as she kept an eye on everyone else in the area in case someone went rouge.
Mood:Kinda confused With:Nearly everyone, but interacting with Yukiko There's always a silver lining Raito smiled when the Kage summoned thousands of paper cranes in a storm, he couldn't help but smile. Mainly at the fact that every now and then you could catch slithers of green in the gaps of the paper, he casually yelled "Idiot wear white if you plan to summon a paper storm to conceal yourself or at least summon green paper!" he didn't care if the Kage didn't here him since he was staring at the cloud in wonder then felt something on his shoulder. He turned to Yukiko still smiling. He replied with "Yeah I'm doin good you? And sounds like a plan, things have died down and the Kage either plans to take them one at a time or leave. So could leave early" He yawned "Dunno bout you but first thing I'm gonna do is shower or bathe then sleep" he giggled, it had been a rough but eventful and fun day. Then cheerfully said "Cya Izaya ... Maybe you just need some help finding it?

Kami Shihai | Genin | Konoha Kami watched as the Hokage put his hand up in the air, a seal appearing before some kind of storm of paper cranes appeared blocking his view off Hideyoshi. The bright green armour sometimes appearing through gaps in the cranes, but nevertheless it was unclear whether the Hokage was moving or not and so Kami tried to think off the best route. As his lions were running almost side by side with Kota, they seemed to peel off run trying to dart to the side before falling off the castle wall whereas the other tried barge it's way through the crowd of creatures. It's paw reached into the mass clawing at some paper cranes but it still dissipated. The paper's edges seemingly ripping through the ink body.
This left Kami staring at this disaster of tactics. Putting his hand to his forehead in a disappointed expression, he watched on for what Kota and Sora would do.
Rei had been enjoying his day so far with light training, particularly to build up endurance for extended combat. He did not realize until moments ago that there was a fight occurring. As Rei had been running...closer to sprinting...around Konohagakure, he happened to have the new Castle on his route, always meaning to visit the place. It was the end of his route, and since it was a short one today, he wasn't to tired. Rei heard the loud clashes, and even spotted a crane storm with green peeking through the white in some places. At least it isn't orange. Rei thought to himself. Spotting a familiar face being attacked, Rei started to move towards his defense, then he remembered the bulletin. Genin were teaming up to face off against Izaya Uchiha and Hideyoshi to join the Hokage's Squad. Realizing that it was likely to be that the green in the storm of paper was the Hokage, Rei made a quick decision. I better not regret this later...
Rei jumped into action. Leaping into the air, he drew out his Fuma Shuriken in his right hand, and some of his lesser Shuriken in his left. Rei threw his lesser Shuriken, about three, at Izaya, hoping to catch him off guard, and his Fuuma at the Hokage himself, praying that the cranes themselves would block his view of the incoming attack. Rei felt that he was going to regret antagonizing both parties, but he felt that if he could get them to react, and catch his eye, he would be able to take one out of the fight using Genjutsu. Not likely, but possible. Calling out to the Genin, Rei exclaimed, "Let's get this started! Form up, lets work together to try and defeat both of them, eh?Or best choice, show them what we are made of, as Genin of Konohagakure!"
As was planned, a gust of Iron Sand was making quick work of the distance between its sender and the receiver- Hideyoshi. Presumably, if seen, none would possess the prowess to distinguish the fact that this metallic particle filled cloud was anything extremely out of the ordinary, save for perhaps the Hokage of whom might well recognise Suzuki's distance messaging system. The Genin in the general parameter, however, might mistake it for seemingly more ruckus in what had already been started, if, of course, it was continuing to proceed. Fortunately, they would be incapable of faltering its purpose much, unless one went to the extent of seeing it as a threat and attempting melt it. While this was rather unlikely, it remained a possibility, nonetheless. No detail could have been left unheard of, unnoticed, and certainly not untouched. In any case, though, the sand could easily make due with what replacement was necessary. Granted, the message may not be portrayed as well as preferred, and, such was increased due to the sender's unnecessarily lengthy writing style. As the malleable cloud of sand grew closer the Hokage, it began dispersing and spreading- this was not a part of the plan. Gusts of wind alongside several quickly moving objects would, of course, block the path of Suzuki's Iron Sand, as it was certainly in no form solid enough to break its way through. This system of notification was not such intended to have to withstand the onslaught of Hideyoshi's paper crane summons, yet, this was exactly the current difficulty. Being splayed and thrown in directions incalculable, the message would be nearly, at the very least, disrupted to some extent; if the onslaught carried on, the sand would only continue to disperse and further destroy the entirety of the message that was, now, possibly of some importance to the Hokage's receiving. Though it was unlikely that the man would miss the fact that miniscule particles of iron were being flung in every form of direction, the possibility of ceasing that which was breaking its path may have been nearly an incapable task to be accomplished. If he'd wanted, the Hokage surely had some ability to receive the slightest bit of what may have been left of the letter, though what was to be gained and what was to be lost had now been entirely lain into his own hands. Suzuki's only purpose was to send the message- there was no guarantee that it would be received.

»Jutsu : • Satetsu [Iron Sand] ~ C Rank Due to the magnetic properties of iron, small particles of it could be manipulated in a similar manner to that of the sand utilized by Shukaku's jinchūriki, through the Magnetism Release Kekkei Genkai. This was used by the Third Kazekage to neutralize the use of Kugutsu.
Kota Hyūga ✘Chunin ✘ Byakugan [Active] ✘ Konoha's All Seeing Eyes
As a large flock of birds appeared thanks to the wonderful Hokage they all knew and love, Kota sighed internally. Now, even with his Byakugan active, the cranes themselves were composed of chakra as well, and having them swarm around like they were was making it rather troublesome to clearly see, but he would manage somehow. First, he would destroy the ones around him. Putting a hand out in front of him, and the other lower towards his hip, he slid his foot on the ground in front of him before he began to spin. "Eight Trigrams Palms Revolving Heaven" The crones who were the closest to Kota's own body were either obliterated by the dome surrounding the Chunin, or pushed away completely. In that moment, he stopped spinning and darting forwards once again to where he could the Hokage's chakra again. Just as he was prepared to strike the male, a sound of what seemed to be a fast rotation quickly entered his ears, and as he turned, a Fuma Shuriken had been hurled in their direction.
With little time to react, Kota bent backwards to the point that he was just a few inches off of the ground, and watched the large shuriken just barely miss his entire body. In a fit of rage because of almost having his life ended, he released an air palm just as the shuriken was passing over him, sending it shooting up into the sky before crashing back down onto the roof. Placing his hands onto the roof, he flipped backwards in order to stand upright again, only to make it just to the edge of the roof. "No..no..no..no.." As his thoughts raced , he began waving his arms desperately in an attempt to keep himself balanced, but just a little longer and he'd be falling backwards to the ground below.

"To be the strongest..."
With his Fuma Shuriken knocked out of the air, and its assailant close to falling, Rei had little choice. Making his way as fast as he could, he made it to the man, and pulled him onto the roof safely. Spotting his shuriken nearby, he grabbed it, and got in a battle ready stance, waiting for whatever the Hokage may cook up. Glancing to the side, he noted the man's eyes were white, and his temple's veins were bulging. From his history lessons, he remembered that members of the Hyuuga family had those trademark eyes as a part of their Kekkei Genkai, much like his own clans Sharingan. "Sorry about that. I was so focused on getting the Hokage and Izaya focused on myself, I didn't spot you. I should work on my observation skills a bit better before leaping. Now, how about we get this on the road, or would you rather leave?"
While not having noticed the Iron Sand, or much beyond the initial conflict, Rei did indeed have a more solid plan. With the Hokage in view, he attempted to make direct eye contact. If successful, Rei would initiate one of his B - rank Genjutsu, Double False Surroundings. The first layer would be upon the twisted grounds of a wasteland, covered in spires and crags and rocks. The second layer would be similar to the Forest of Death, though the trees will move occasionally. The Hokage would see the wasteland first, and if he broke through it, he would be in the forest, where his second jutsu would be far more effective in being...real.
Sora was apprehensive about getting close to Hideyoshi, especially when he looked so calm quiet; this was usually a sign that something was up. Instead of rushing in Sora would remain perched against the wall that he intended to push off of, formulating a strategy in his head. He knew that there was no way that he could overpower the childish kage, but there was a possibility that he could outsmart him. If you asked everybody in the room they would say it impossible, however Sora knew different, he knew that if he exploited all of their abilities then it was possible for them to win. " Kota, prepare to dive in. You'll know when. You guys on the ground! I want anybody who knows katon techniques to use them in combination with my jutsu. If there is a Nara down there take advantage of the chaos! He won't be able to hear me because of all the rustling of the paper!" Sora said as he dropped from the ceiling and hovered in a new position. He placed himself facing the paper swarm diagonally so that he had a view of every exit from the swarm; Hideyoshi's back, Sora assumed, was facing the corner of the ceiling, and Sora would take advantage of his position. Making a set of handseals Sora stopped at the end, bellowing just quiet enough so that Hideyoshi still couldn't hear him. "First wave, fire, NOW" He said as his chest puffed up, deflating as he released a massive blast of wind. Fuuton: Daitoppa. The blast would go off encompassing the entire area in front of Sora; if fire were added in to this it would push the flame forwards and set the cranes ablaze, effectively trapping Hideyoshi in his own technique. The follow up from the Nara, if there was one, would eliminate his movement; the Nara could use the shadows of the cranes to increase his range. Sora was trying to immobilize Hideyoshi as they slammed him with a wall of flaming cranes.
